Rod Stewart could only perform with a bottle of oxygen

Rod Stewart, an 81-year-old singer, continued his concert in Salt Lake City with the help of an oxygen tank after feeling unwell during the performance. According to the Daily Mail, footage shared by TMZ showed Stewart leaning forward on stage, signaling to his team, and taking multiple breaths from an oxygen tank before addressing the audience, stating he nearly fainted during the previous song. Despite audience encouragement to rest, Stewart insisted the show must go on and resumed performing seated. This incident occurred just weeks after Stewart canceled a California concert due to respiratory infection and laryngitis, though he later stated his condition had improved. However, his decision to fly privately to Boston with his sons to watch a FIFA World Cup match sparked fan outrage. Stewart is currently touring North America as part of his 'One Last Time' farewell tour, which began in 2024. He has performed in Hungary multiple times, including at the birthday celebration of entrepreneur Bige László and during the wedding of Mészáros Lőrinc and Várkonyi Andrea. During one of his Budapest concerts, the audience booed a large screen displaying Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelensk
